Working in Canada


Internationally-trained speech-language pathologists and audiologists who would like to work in Canada are invited to become a member of CASLPA, the national association. All internationally-trained applicants (other than ASHA CCC holders) are first assessed by IQAS and then by CASLPA. Further questions should be forwarded to Carla Di Gironimo, director of speech-language pathology and professional standards or Chantal Kealey, director of audiology and supportive personnel.
